Us and Them: A conversation between liberals and conservatives. Totally fair and balanced.

911 is the story how our country went astray

911 justifies anything we do today

Freedoms that we took for granted don’t exist here anymore

Terrorists, they want to kill you—
don’t forget we’re in a war

How did 911 happen—questions still persist today
Either you helped plot it or you just looked the other way

Such outrageous accusations, you conspiracy theorist
When you disagree with us
you’re helping the terrorists

You blatantly stole two elections—
the proof is there for all to see

You liberals don’t know how to fight—
we must defeat the enemy

We’re sacrificing civil rights—
along with our hopes and dreams

We’ll repeat our talking points—
the end shall justify the means

The ends are getting hard to look at—
we ain’t good guys anymore

Good guys--Bad guys—what’s the difference?
All is fair, we’re in a war

It ain’t right to torture people—everybody knows it’s true

Everybody must obey us—you don’t tell us what to do

Now our nation is divided—Civil discourse is no more

No, our nation is united under God, we’re in a war
We control the corporations,
we control the government
We control the media 99.9%
God has blessed us with his bounty—
God has told us what to do
God wants us to rule the world,
and God knows what is best for you

The framers of our constitution saw this danger long ago
When church and state are separated,
freedom has a chance to grow



We play to our Christian base that
thinks the rapture is their fate

Rationality will triumph—take heart it is not too late
You neo-cons are not conservative—
you’re as radical as can be
Fascism is what you’re after—you don’t want democracy
Shock and awe—fear and terror,
we’ve been down this road before
We can see through all your bullshit—
we ain’t buying it anymore
You neo-cons don’t represent us—
all the world knows what it means
When all you touch just turns to shit from Abu Graib to New Orleans.

911 tells the story when our country went astray
When your kids ask what you did then
I hope you got something to say.
